Common pitfalls & FAQ

  • It won't let me borrow more. QuickLoan is capped by your eligibility — you can't go above the amount offered.
  • I'm not eligible. Eligibility builds with your savings and repayment history. Keep saving and repaying on time, and ask your SACCO what's needed.
  • When do I repay? A QuickLoan has a short term — check the due date in the confirmation. You can repay early; see Repay a loan by USSD.
  • "Session expired." Dial 38425611# again and move quickly through the steps.
